Commission Miniature Painting for Tabletop Armies

I focus on producing clean, high-quality, tabletop-ready miniatures that look great as part of a collection or army. My work is ideal for wargamers who want well-painted figures without the time commitment of doing it themselves.

Commissions are available for:

  • Infantry
  • Cavalry
  • Vehicles and artillery
  • Characters and command units

If you’re looking for a dependable wargaming painting service, I’m always happy to discuss your project.

What Customers Say

Jim Dundas is no mere figure painter. Jim Dundas is an artisan, a genuine craftsman who applies his skill to the art of finishing wargame models. I am not a gamer. I’m a collector of historical mounted cavalry. And I’m a stickler for accuracy...

After contacting a myriad of painters, I decided to go with Jim because (1) he replied to my barrage of questions patiently, promptly, and thoroughly; (2) the pics in his gallery look very nice (even the horses which is where many painters fall short); (3) his fee schedule is reasonable; (4) and perhaps most important of all—he’s willing to accommodate my paint guides. This last point is crucial because my paint guides detail the colors for every element of every model (textile dye colors for the period in question, face markings on horses, etc.).

I commissioned Jim to paint six Victrix cavalry figures, three Normans and three Bretons. And the result? Nothing short of magnificent! Jim captured every single detail just as I specified, and he did so with extraordinary skill. He even hand-painted the shields to match the transfers I selected, thereby alleviating the need to purchase the transfers. Jim captured the transfer designs so perfectly, I had to ask him twice to confirm that he actually painted them by hand. (I wanted to make sure I didn’t owe him for the transfers). Prior to packing, he emailed a ton of images for my approval. And the figures arrived packed securely. I could not be more pleased. Even as I write this, Jim and I are already collaborating on the next project. I look forward to many more after it. Now… about that Byzantine horse barding… Russ M. Dallas, Texas.

We are a small historical wargaming club, and Jim has been assembling and painting miniatures for us since 2023. From the outset, his craftsmanship, attention to detail, and genuine passion for every piece have set him apart—so much so that we simply wouldn’t consider using anyone else…

For each commission, Jim takes the time to understand our exact requirements, keeping us fully informed throughout the process. He regularly shares progress updates and images, ensuring every detail meets our expectations before completing the work. Jim is exceptionally reliable, handling projects of all sizes with the same level of care and dedication. His talent represents outstanding value for money, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found him. We look forward to continuing to work with him for many years to come—so long as he can tolerate our ever-growing list of requests! Johnny Parker,  Chairman, C&S Wargaming Club.
